Linq2Xml Parse Output From REST Web Service?

Jan 3, 2011

I am attempting to parse the XML output from a REST web service and have been pointed in the direction of using Linq2Xml to query the XML for the attributes that I am after. The XML output is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"standalone="yes" ?>
<Response Status="OK">
<Item Name="NumberZones">2</Item>

[code]...

The returned datatable is empty, I have confirmed that result does have the XML assigned, and result.value is the string version of the XML file (200Westralia0{81C56183-31DA-45C2-90C3-81609F01B38B}Lounge10001{eac0109e-0090-a992-7fba-dc67fe29e6e7})Is anyone able to provide assistance in how I can read from the REST XML example above the name (ZoneName%) and the attribute value (Westralia and Lounge)?

Talking To A Rest Service / Call A Rest Service Without Having To Redirect?

Feb 8, 2010

I need to call a Rest service but would like to do so without having to redirect. Here is my dilemma. The Rest service we are trying to integrate offers the option to sign up for a subscription but does not allow us to upgrade an existing subscription. So if a user wants to upgrade an existing subscription we have to first cancel and then have the user sign up for a brand new subscription. I don't know how I can make this so it flows nicely in my code. I ideally I would like to do something like this

User decides to upgrade

Click upgrade button

Existing account is being cancelled, if cancellation was successful

New account is being created

How can I do this with a Rest service? Here is a sample URI/URL

https://someservice.com?
Action=CancelSubscriptionAndRefund
&AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIIFXJCFIHITREP4Q
&CallerReference=CallerReference07
&CancelReason=MyWish
&RefundAmount.CurrencyCode=USD
&RefundAmount.Value=1
&SignatureMethod=HmacSHA256
&SignatureVersion=2
&Signature=1uFUSSFvau1zadnSzKRS5ZchuLMn9p5M3ifaHGHie7M%3D
&SubscriptionId=17d62772-c53e-4bdb-9667-65d7b7841cfc
&Timestamp=2009-10-06T08%3A05%3A13.296Z
&Version=2008-09-

Could anybody give me some ideas how to make this work in an elegant manner. We thought we could keep the old subscription and then just sign the user up for a new subscription for the difference of the money. For example the first subscription would be 2.95 and the second one would be 2.00 which would amount to a subscription of 4.95. I think it is not elegant and the user would see 2 charges on the credit card, weird, I think. Since I don't know much about Rest maybe there is a way that this can be solved.

VS 2008 Calling Rest Web Service?

Membership / Authorization Over A REST Service?

Mar 23, 2011

I'm investigating creating a WCF REST service for an existing asp.net application to be consumed by various clients including Windows Phone 7, Android, iPhone apps etc.Creating a simple WCF REST service and consuming it from the above platforms is not a problem and works really well. What I am struggling to get my head around is authorization.The asp.net application uses the Membership provider to provide authentication and authorization and I'm comfortable in using that API from the REST service.

How do I secure my REST service so that the first call has to be to authenticate (passing the username and password) and following calls know who is 'logged in'. I'm guessing the authenticate method will have to pass back some sort of token to be used in subsequent calls identifying the caller. Is this secure enough as the whole site / service is over SSL?

Trying to deploy a wcf rest service inside of an asp.net web application. Works wonderfully when deploying to test server in visual studio, however when i deploy to iis 6 I get nothing. It is as if my service is not there at all.

here is my web config under system.service model:

<serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />

and im registering a route in the global.cs

routes.Add(new ServiceRoute("Service", new WebServiceHostFactory3(), typeof(WcfJQueryService)));

my web service class is decorated with:

[AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Required)]

I am using windows authentication if that matters in this case.

WCF Rest Web Service Working On Localhost But Not On Host?

Consuming A WCF REST Service From Android Is Very Slow?

Aug 31, 2010

I have a WCF REST service built with C# and it returns an image as part of a CPU intensive operation. The client is running on Android (Java) By default, it will return a text JSON object that looks something like this:

{"d",[9,0,77,12,11,...]}

Those are they bytes of the image. Fine. However, all the solutions for decoding this JSON are intolerably slow. I've tried Gson, Jackson, and the built-in Android JSONObject class. I have no idea why they are so slow.

As an alternative solution, I have my REST service return a GUID, and then that GUID can be used by the Android client to go to a regular URL that serves up the image as a regular binary stream, via an MVC controller.

This works well, and it fast, and is pretty easy to handle on the Android side. However, it does feel like a bit of kludge and kind of a violation of the REST design principles. Am I missing something here? Is there a better way to do this?

Patterns For A Data File Based WCF REST Web Service?

Mar 15, 2011

We have an existing, proprietary data processing application that runs on one of our servers and we wish to expose it as a web service for our clients to submit jobs remotely. In essence, the system takes a set of configuration parameters and one or more data files (the number of files depends on the particular configuration template, but the normal config is 2 files). The application then takes the input files, processes them, and outputs a single result data file (all files are delimited text / CSV or tab).

We want to now expose this process as a service. Based on our current setup and existing platforms, we are fairly confident that we want to go with WCF 4.0 as the framework and likely REST for the service format, though a SOAP implementation may be required at some point.

Although I am doing a lot of reading on SOA, WCF and REST, I am interested in other thoughts on how to model this service. In particular, the one-to-many relationship of job to required files for input. It seems pretty trivial to model a "job" in REST with the standard CRUD commands. However, the predefined "job type" parameter defines the number of files that must be included. A job type of "A" might call for two input files, while "B" requires 3 before the job can run.

Given that, what is best way to model the job? Do I include the multiple files in the initial creation of the job? Do I create a job and then have an "addFile" method where by I can then upload the necessary number of files?

The jobs will then have to run asynchronously because they can take time. Once complete, is it best to then just have a status field in the job object and require the client to regularly query the system for job status, or perhaps have the client provide a URL to "ping" when the job is complete?

Web Forms :: Post Form To Web Service And Parse XML

Jan 10, 2011

Hope this is the right forum to ask. I am trying to write a simple mobile application with two form fields that POST to a webservice that queries an SQL database and comes back with an XML file that needs to be parsed and displayed
properly in a browser.

So what I have is a webservice .asmx file that is working properly and an HTML form that POST two variables to the webservice file. The result is the generated XML. I simply just need to know the simplest way to display parts of that data as output within the
design of the form page.

Here is the HTML form: http://www.bt4u.org/
And here is the web service: http://www.bt4u.org/BT4U/BT4U_WebService.asmx

If you enter in the following respectively you will see the XML file:

MSS-1607
HWD-2104

there is some sort of class that stores the XML in an array or some such thing that can then be manipulated

HttpHandler To Handle All Kinds Of URL's In Mono Apache/XSP In Order To Build A REST Service?

I want to develop my own REST service, so I've created an IHttpHandler that is configured with verb="*" and path="*", the the application in ~/MyRESTsrv/ will handle any derived URL.

This approach works good in IIS7 with "integrated mode" and apparently in IIS6 if you map all the extensions to "aspnet_isapi.dll".

Is this possible in Apache/XSP with Mono? Do I have to do something special or it will work out of the box?

How To Resolve WCF Rest MethodNotFound (405) Error When Appting To PUT Via WCF Rest Starter Kit HttpClient

Sep 2, 2010

I have looked at nearly every single WCF Rest PUT/POST issues on SO here and have still been unable to determine why I am unable to PUT or POST to my web service but am able to call a test GetTime method via GET. This particular service exchanges custom credential information (username, password and some other information) for a token. This token information is encrypted and added to the header of subsequent requests to other web services so that username/passwords don't have to be passed around everywhere. All web service calls are still treated as stateless, but require this auth header information rather username/passwords to access secured service operations.

[Code]....

I have also checked in IIS 7 the handler mappings for *.svc and checked that 'all verbs' are enabled.
